Benedict Cumberbatch’s Alan Rickman Impersonation

If you’ve saw Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy this weekend, you’ve been introduced to the fantastic acting of a Mr. Benedict Cumberbatch. Cumberbatch was great in the John le Carré adaptation and as the title role in the BBC’s Sherlock miniseries, but he’s also a bit of an impressionist. Specifically, Cumberbatch is an expert Alan Rickman impersonator. Check out these two brief clips, the first of which is Cumberbatch singing as Rickman on the BBC Radio 2 and the second features Cumberbatch giving brief impressions of Rickman; former Doctor Who star David Tennant and talk show host Jonathan Ross.
